Lets talk about my "Pakistan" Over 140 million Pakistanis either have no access to the power grid or suffer over 12 hours of load shedding daily. Can the government tackle the energy crisis? Doing so in the long run may be possible, but in the immediate term, consumers must begin using more energy-efficient products in order to mitigate the issue, reveals the report "Energy Conservation: Avoid Wastage, Prevent Shortages" by Research and Advocacy for the Advancement of Allied Reforms. Now i am telling you the 7 Facts Of Pakistan' (1)The average shortfall in the power sector is 4,000 Mega Watts, and nearly two billion cubic feet per day (BCFD) in the natural gas sector. The shortfall in the power sector can rise to around 7,000 MW or 32 pc of total demand for electricity. (2)Chronic power shortage, in the form of load-shedding and power outages, costed the Pakistan economy Rs 14 billion (7 pc of GDP) last year. (3)Over 140 million Pakistanis either have no access to the power grid or suffer over 12 hours of load-shedding daily. Pakistanis who do not have access to the grid are often poorer than those on the grid. Meanwhile, household electricity consumption has grown at an average annual rate of 10pc yearly. (4)500,000 households are impacted with unemployment as businesses have been forced to shut down due to energy shortages. (5)In the last five years, Pakistan has taken a hit of Rs 145 billion per annum from system losses in the grid due to inefficient transmission and distribution. (6)Investment in the power sector has fallen to 0.7pc of the GDP in the last 10 years, from a high of 1.5pc during the 1980s and 1990s. (7)Rs 30billion is the approximate expenditure by Pakistani households on UPS and battery chargers alone. About 60 pc of Pakistani households have some form of UPS as a backup for selected appliances during power cuts and shortages. Backup power sources are a stopgap solution, both wasteful and inefficient. You know 17% of total electricity used in Pakistan and effciency measures. Now its time for Pakistan's position in Syrian civil war.
 * Although the government is attempting to add capacity to the grid in order to remedy the persistent power shortage, these measures will take time to come into effect.
 * The China Pakistan Economic Corridor is another way Pakistan could turn towards cleaner forms of energy, as China is a world leader in total wind and solar installed renewable energy, at about 140,000MW.
 * Punjab must lead the way in this initiative, as the province is home to the largest population in Pakistan and consumes the most electricity. About 90pc of all tubewells are also in Punjab.

After Turkey, Pakistan's long time ally, launched Operation Olive Branch, which aimed to defeat the Kurdish group YPG and the Syrian Army, Pakistan, which has a Baloch and Pashtun presence, has maintained a neutral stance. However, Pakistani students in January 24, 2018 had attended to pray in the University of Lahore in support for Turkish military operation in Syria which aimed against Assad's Syria ,[21] which raised angers among Assad supporters in Syria as well as Kurds, and thus raising the question over Pakistan's pledge to support Bashar al-Assad. Syrians who aligned to Bashar al-Assad have perceived Pakistan negatively since the war began.
